In our second CHD Spotlight episode, we'll discuss holes in the heart—atrial septal defects (ASDs), ventricular septal defects (VSDs) and more!

Today's CHD Spotlight is on the most common type of heart defect commonly referred to as "holes in the heart." This episode features Dr. William Novick—an internationally-known cardiothoracic surgeon and the head of the Novick Cardiac Alliance, a nonprofit organization providing life-saving heart surgeries to children around the world.

In this episode, Dr. Novick shares the names of some specific congenital heart defects (they are commonly referred to as "holes in the heart") and the treatment used to help people born with these heart defects survive and thrive.  He also discusses some heart defects which commonly have a hole in their heart, as well.

What is it like to be the mom of not one but two children with CHD? 

How can you manage epilepsy in a child with CHD?

Melanie Letzer is a geriatric nurse practitioner. She lives in Maryland with her husband Jack and their three children. Her older son, Freddy, now 16, was born with Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia with Multiple Aortopulmonary Collateral Arteries (MAPCAS). Her younger son, Nicholas, now 5, was also born with TOF and later developed epilepsy. Melanie and John also have a heart-healthy daughter, Alexandra, who is 13.

In this episode of "Heart to Heart with Anna," Melanie talks with Anna about finding out her sons would be born with heart defects, their surgical treatments, and what it was like for Melanie to have a heart-healthy daughter. She also talks a bit about their family dynamic and their philosophy in living with chronic illness.

What was it like to grow up with tetralogy of Fallot in the 1980s? How can having a heart defect influence your career choice as an adult? What psychological challenges do Heart Warriors face?

Joy Ogawa was born in Hawaii with tetralogy of Fallot in 1979  and had an open-heart surgery at 22 months of age. She considers herself lucky to have only experienced one surgery in her lifetime.

Despite other health issues affecting her eyes, ears, abdomen, and her emotional wellbeing, Joy was able to participate in physical activities and complete her education and is now a psychologist working in Corrections/Public Safety. 

Joy highlights her experience of living with CHD in her newly released self-published, illustrated children’s book “I am a Heart Warrior.”

In this episode of “Heart to Heart with Anna,” Joy shares with Anna some of the medical challenges she has faced over her 40+ years of living with a congenital heart defect and why she considers herself to be as fortunate as she is.
